Resetting Your Pocket PC Phone
You can perform a
soft reset or a full reset. During a soft reset, the device is restarted and
only some data in opened programs may be lost. However, a
full reset turns the battery off,
returns the device to its original factory settings, and deletes all programs, files, contacts
and other information you have saved to the device. Therefore, it is extremely important
to back up data to a storage card or your computer on a regular basis in the event that a
full reset has to be performed.
To perform a soft reset
If your Pocket PC Phone responds slowly, stops responding, or freezes, you can
soft reset
it. A
soft reset causes the Pocket PC Phone to restart and re-adjust memory allocation.
Unsaved data in any opened applications may be lost. Use the stylus to press and hold
the
Reset button, as shown on the next page.
